Tigers' Jose Cisnero: Inks deal with Tigers

Cisnero signed a minor-league contract with Detroit on Friday that includes an invite to spring training.

Cisnero has spent the last few years outside Major League Baseball, including a stint in the Dominican Winter League with Leones del Escogido this past season. The 29-year-old right-hander has pitched in 33 big-league games, with a majority of those outings coming with Houston in 2013. He will battle for a spot in the Tigers' bullpen during spring training.
